Product Information

Full details

The VEVOR Shipping Container Wheels Kit is an essential tool for warehouse managers, construction site supervisors, and logistics professionals who need to mobilize empty 20 ft and 40 ft shipping containers. Designed to support up to 8800 lbs, this heavy-duty system simplifies the relocation of heavy steel units across flat surfaces. While it offers immense utility for internal site logistics, it is important to note that this kit is exclusively intended for empty containers and requires a relatively level ground surface for safe, stable operation.

FAQs

Can I use these wheels on a loaded container?

No, this kit is strictly rated for empty shipping containers only.

What is the weight limit for this kit?

The kit is designed to support a maximum capacity of 8800 lbs.

Does it fit all shipping containers?

The kit is designed for standard 20 ft and 40 ft containers with standard ISO corner castings.

How do I maintain the wheels?

Keep the axle clear of grit, periodically lubricate moving parts, and ensure the anti-rust coating is intact.

Can these be used on soft grass or gravel?

These are optimized for paved or solid, level ground. Soft surfaces may cause the wheels to sink or become stuck.

What is the bolt circle diameter?

The kit features a 6.5-inch bolt circle.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty in tightening J-hooks

Check the corner casting for obstructions or bent metal that may prevent the hook from seating correctly.

Wheel movement feels unstable

Verify that the surface is flat and the ratcheted J-hooks are tightened to the maximum tension specified for the load.

Rust appearing on surface

While the finish is anti-rust, deep scratches should be touched up with a cold galvanizing spray to prevent corrosion from spreading.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High weight capacity of 8800 lbs
  • Durable anti-rust finish for outdoor longevity
  • Quick attachment system via J-hooks
  • Fits standard 20 ft and 40 ft container sizes
  • Sturdy cold-rolled steel construction

Cons

  • Only for use with empty containers
  • Requires flat ground for safe movement
  • Significant net weight of 79.37 lbs makes manual handling difficult
  • Not intended for over-the-road transport

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed on a level, solid surface. First, inspect the container corner castings to ensure they are free of debris or rust that might obstruct the J-hook attachment. Position the wheel kit under the corner casting and thread the J-hooks through the designated holes. Use the integrated ratcheting system to tighten the hooks until the unit is seated firmly against the container frame. For long-term care, regularly clean the wheel axles to prevent dust buildup and inspect the J-hooks for signs of mechanical wear or fatigue. The anti-rust finish is weather-resistant, but storing the kit indoors when not in active use will significantly extend the service life of the bearings and steel components.
